Press conferences and early injury news (20/21)

[Mav3rick]

The thing is does Aguero being out actually mean Jesus will see significantly more minutes? It's Pep, and the fixtures are tight, I can't see him not being rotated around regardless of Aguero being fit or not, especially if he's the number 1 choice for the bigger games.

Perhaps Foden will see more time in the front three as post-lockdown, him and Mahrez I think might be the main beneficiaries of Aguero's distributed minutes.

Can't see the attraction in Jesus, not with Jimenez next 6 fixtures +1m

That's very true.

Ow boy... he was like my secret weapon.

A secret weapon that everybody knew about?

Two months is interesting though. That would put his return somewhere around mid to late November. Man City's great fixture run starts on November 28th (GW10), and it was always my hope to be able to bring in Agüero for GW10. So perhaps he might not be finished as an FPL asset yet.

*rubs chin and gazes thoughtfully into the middle distance*

What he actually said was, after what implied he was ready to start training, that it could be 1 or 2 months til he is ready.

So, he could even be back by mid-October if not sooner. Maybe.

Bruno happy to share spot-kick duties: "It doesn't matter if I take penalties. We have a lot of qualities in the team. Rashy was the guy who took the penalties, so I tell him, 'when you feel confident, if you want to take the penalty, it is not a problem.' I will not fight"

What you mean about Harvertz ?

[GunnerDave]

I took him out just before he got his hat trick I went from 6th to 16th in my work league in one night

Was anyone watching the city game last night? What happened to KDB, did it look an injury or just a bump? Guardiola wasn't very helpful post game.

Was a clash of heads, he stayed down for longer than expected though and all the medical team was on, but looking back i think he was just running down the clock, as he was back on not long after and appeared to he fine

Cheers Stevie, useful info, thanks

Jesus probably out for a month.

Jesus probably out for a month.

Be careful, it's just a Twitter rumour although it's gathering steam

I’ve still not seen any relatively reliable sources for this and not sure when we will tbh. Frustrating as I’ve just wildcarded had him last game. Put the Fulham keeper in (don’t ask) who got dropped. So subbed him for Martinez. If I now have to do a -4 for Jiminez straight after a wildcard ima be pissssssed

[dino1980]

I bought him in last night for Vardy, as the latter looked like dropping and I had the exact funds for a double switch. Hopefully the rumours aren't true, but no Pep presser today, so I don't think we're going to get any info.

The tweets have now turned into “Jesus will be out for a few weeks” I don’t know how much relevance that bares but as you say no presser. Getting twitchy.

[Billy Bongo]

Yeah, it looks overwhelmingly like he's out. Saaaaaaaaakeeeeessssssss

It looks overwhelmingly like more and more people are spreading the same initial twitter rumour.

Means nothing. Either way.

Wake me up when it is on a reputable site like BBC or MEN.

Ive bit got him in FPL so im happy about that, but brought him into my Fanteam for Aubamenyang which is frustrating as ive had a good start in that and my outright position is 701.

Should have brought Jiminez in

Don't wait for the Manc Evening News to publish the story. They will only announce it when the team news comes out an hour before the game.

Does not apply to me in FPL but it does in fanteam and id rather just let my bench do there job than take a -4

Hopefully Jiminez does not run riot at west ham this week

Not that surprising. He got kicked to shit by Wolves and got booked for his troubles.

[hancockjr]

The ref injured him with the yellow card?!?
